John, there are loads of reasons why I think you should join my campaign to be Iowa’s next governor.

But rather than sending you the world’s longest email (I could, but I won’t), I’m just going to give you 5 big reasons why you should join my campaign today! But if you’re in a hurry or you’re already sold (hooray!), you can split a donation of $5 — $1 for each reason below — between my campaign and Blue Amp Action today!

Alright, John, here’s the rundown:

1. This campaign runs on grassroots support (and caffeine). In order to take on the insiders and special interests and win this critical race, we need to build the biggest, baddest grassroots movement Iowa has ever seen!
2. We need to reach voters in every corner of the state. Face-to-face conversations are going to be absolutely critical to getting my Iowa-first message in front of voters in all 99 counties.
3. We need to juice our digital program in a big way. We need to reach people where they’re at, and running a robust, efficient digital program means we can connect with people on email, texting, and social media.
4. I’m not afraid to go head-to-head with partisan insiders. In fact, it’s kind of my specialty, and I’ve made a career of standing up to powerful players to fight on behalf of everyday Iowans and I’m not stopping now.
5. We’re breaking fundraising records! Together, we’re sending a message that we’re starting this race off with a BANG and a band of grassroots supporters to boot.

So what do you say, John? Will you split $5 (or $25! Or $50!) today? I can’t do this without you!

Thanks for being in my corner!
